This spring, the Cary Institute organized an intimate exploration of Peru's Upper Amazon. The eight-day boat trip included a visit to an Amazonian village tucked into the rainforest and excursions into the picturesque Pacaya-Samiria National Preserve. Trip highlights included abundant bird sightings, local cuisine, and insight into the ecology of this biologically rich region.
